I loved the County Ground but that was a real embarrasement. I can remember walking down to Sixfields for the first time when it opened and had a tear in my eye, I thought it was wonderful. But now the East Stand debacle and the lack of any improvements is embarrasing in itself. Just finish it off and make ends bigger. By the way is it me or is the keg room in the West Stand diminishing?

We are told these days everyone's view matters so here's mine. I hate it. I stopped going even when I lived in town and only went away, now that says a lot. If a diehard wont go how are new supporters supposed to be enticed and how many potential customers are we losing? I don't buy this crap that it's adequate for league two, as its absolutely not for league one and isn't that where we are aiming? Due to our location, away followings of over 2000 could regularly be expected in league one and when a large crowd is anticipated it stirs up home fans into going too. 2000 plus away could quite easily create a 10,000 plus home gate here. Currently we will never know. My perspective it would be a perfect stadium if the West stand (design) of two tiers, continued and wrapped around both the north and south ends. The East stand would be fine as now intended predominantly media/corporate and stand alone. My guess, this would make it around 18-20k? Then again as long as I have a hole in my ar se or we could just wait to win the Championship first...  Great concept (new ground) but we’d effectively have Stadium MK and be rattling around in it. The essential missing ingredient is an ambitious and forward thinking council. The set up and ambition of our two professional teams has never been further apart. There are plenty of events, concerts, conferences and lucrative one offs that could be hosted in Northampton. Sixfields is probably the ideal location and could easily ground share down the road if the place was levelled. Dreamland. |

Mmmmm, this thread is starting to take on a familiar theme. Correct, lets face the stadium issue really doesn't need another thread. |

Pave paradise put up a parking lot.
Sell off the whole site.
Use profits to compulsory purchase the Beacon Bingo site and Houses adjoining Franklin’s Gardens.
Increase the Gardens to 25-30k capacity and share.
The cost covered in return for shared ownership of site.
Open up the Slipper.

The extra mileage and parking for those west of town would be hell. |

Do a super merge into Redev Thread. It could do with higher number of posts and views.

Rather than that. I think we should all enjoy the million and one ways that Random regurgitates his obsession. I've even thought of some future topics for him and those well known Trust cheerleaders (The Trustites) Is Sixfields too grey Is Sixfields full of devil worshipers Has Kelvin got a tiny penis Do Kelvin Thomas's eyebrows meet Did Gareth Willsher put Novichok on the front door of KPWMC Are the Starlings really spy drones controlled from Florida Is the club shop just a front for laundering the Triads money Is Nick Ancell an undermining influence at the club, inserted surreptitiously by Darragh MacAnthony Just a few to look forward to. |

Yes to all the above. Particularly the KPWMC one as I’ve been in there regularly and always feel slightly squiffy when leaving, occasionally the room spins. Clear evidence |

Oh you nostalgic old fool you. Another bleary eyed trip down memory lane. Is that for those who have the temerity to doubt that we are on the right path? As far as I’m concerned, the now 100 year plan, is right on track. Oh yea of little faith. |
